I'm so sorry to hear of Tony's passing. I met him 24 years ago. He commented on my bosses Bichon poodle. He said my dogs would like him. As a dog person I asked what do you have. He smiled and replied Greyhounds. This was before rehoming groups in New Zealand. I literally put my hands on my cheeks and said I want one! I went to see two pups. A year later after my Beardie passed I phoned Tony and asked do you have anything available. I picked up Sassy Friday night. Tony has absolutely " ruined" me. To date I have had 8 Greyhounds and met some of best friends through Greyhounds. Thank you Tony for entrusting me with Sassy. RIP
